SHIOYA is my small hometown, a quaint peaceful fishing village nestled in a valley. It takes about 15 minutes from Kobe station, 40min from Osaka and 70min from Kyoto by JR train. It's surrounded by beautiful mountains and the sea, its historical and has a lovely quaint market street.
On meeting at JR SHIOYA station, I'd like to give your own Japanese name card to you. It would be useful for communication with friendly local people.
First, let's go to the harbour. Enjoy a photogenic view of the area. You can see Mt Rokko, Awaji island, the pearl bridge, etc. Also, you can see Nori (seaweed) factory when it opens (winter season) and you can eat and buy it on outlet price.
Then through the tunnel, we'll go into SHIOYA town. I'd like you to know about real Japanese daily life by walking through a temple, a shrine, a cemetery, etc.
Enjoy the narrow market street and I want to share my local vision with you, visiting a barber shop which has over 100 years history, a tatami factory, and our beautiful heritage, the Guggenheim house when they are open.
Let's enjoy a lot of different yummy Japanese snacks & drinks.
Have fun talking with local people & a super smiley environment !
